midrange can be the needle,  im going to assume you checked for air leaks? 

What do you mean by air leaks? I have 360 jet size in there. Do you think that is too big and I should try a 280?

by air leaks, meaning the motor could be sucking air,  check that your carb boots arent riped. that intake gaskets are good, ever base gaskets, or pressure test it.  there is a thread on how to do that with simple home depot stuff.

360 is big for a stock bike with pipes. 27.5 pilot. Needles on middle clip. 270-310 I'd say for your main but you will need to play with that

What VF reed?  If its a 4 try a 30 pilot.  Is it stroked?  360 main sounds big for a stock stroke unless its really ported up.

I put a set of 280 main jets in. Now when I rev it, it sounds like it wants to die. Also when trying to hit the powerband while driving it backfires. Do you guys think it's the CDI?? Tested the coil and its fine I'm maybe thinking it's that?

Definitely could be the cdi. 

So it was running better with the other jet?  It might be jetting then.

You need to check out how to make a leak down tester and do that first.

i have heard of being to lean causing backfiring.  

 

quick question,  how clean is your air filter.  I had midrange issues at one point because i had an outerwear go bad, and it was like putting a bag over the air cleaner.
